Why Did Kisaki Cry When He Shot Takemichi?

Tokyo Revengers have been asking this question for a while. Why Did Kisaki Cry When He Shot Takemichi? We will answer this query briefly in this article.

Fans are interested in this topic since, in another timeline, as Kisaki was ready to shoot Takemichi, he smiled and merely said “die” to him, with no remorse or anything.

So seeing him cry in this alternate reality is quite confusing, which is why so many fans are puzzled.

Now without any further ado, let’s dive straight into the question.

Why Did Kisaki Cry When He Shot Takemichi?

Takemichi was Kisaki’s role model since he was not only liked by the girl Kisaki loved, but he was a massive badass in this universe instead of a loser. Therefore he felt regret for murdering someone he looked up to and admired.

He felt terrible this time instead of earlier timelines due to a more active part in Toman and how he was an enormous challenge for Kisaki to overcome. 

He looked up to him in an unusual way since Takemichi grabbed the attention of the girl he liked. 

So it was a terrible moment for him, and because he stayed a badass rather than a pansy in this scenario, he probably felt sadder than simply whacking a loser who worked at a video shop.

Because Takemitchi considered himself a delinquent at the time, Kisaki believes Hina loves Takemitchi for being a delinquent, and as a result, Kisaki becomes a delinquent himself.

Kisaki sobbed in this scenario because he saw Takemitchi as a role model, looked up to him, admired him, and aspired to be like him. He grieved because he had murdered his role model and the guy who had encouraged him to become a delinquent.
